Luandia

JOINED BY ABERYSTWYTH IRB The Aberdovey IRB was joined by the Aberystwyth IRB, a shore boat from Borth, and an Outward Bound Sea School boat. They searched the area until 5 o'clock, when the search was abandoned. While the Aberdovey IRB was returning to her station a small sloop, the Luandia, with two persons on board was seen to be in difficulties on the bar. A line was taken aboard the Luandia and a member of the IRB's crew went aboard. The sloop was towed clear and returned to her moorings at Aberdovey. The IRB returned to her station at 5.35 p.m..
